Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

4 cups water

1 cup corn grits

1/2 cup butter

1 teaspoon seasoning salt

2 large eggs

4 ounces grated cheddar cheese

4 ounces grated Muenster

OR Gruyere or Monterey Jack cheese

1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

salt -- to taste, optional

grated Parmesan cheese -- for garnish

 

Servings: 6-8

 

Grits are generally bland and need the " zing " of cheese. I like to mix the

flavor of cheeses for variety. If you like a little more color, add a 2

ounce jar of drained red pimientos.

 

In a saucepan on high heat, bring water to boil and stir in grits. Cook

for 5 minutes, stirring constantly. Stir in butter until melted.

 

Transfer to the slow cooker. Stir in seasoning salt, eggs and cheeses (If

using an egg substitute, add during the last 10 minutes of cooking). Cook

on low heat for 3 to 4 hours, stirring occasionally. Before serving, stir

in parsley and salt if desired. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese for garnish.
